Is it possible to split a formatted symbol such as...drums_1.wav ...to extract the float '1' and use that to assign a meaningful attribute? For example a float could represent a loop playback switch. if I have 'drums_0.wav' I would like to extract the float, find that itis '0' and then I would know that this WAV file is say, not to be looped.Or if I had 'drums_1.wav' I would be able to parse the filename, find the '1'which I now know to loop the WAV file. Thanks in advance! John

zexy's [symbol2list] was designed to allow something like this.
iirc, the new [text] object will allow you to build something like this in Pd-vanilla.

maybe using s2l ? something (roughly) like:
[symbol drums_1.wav(
| [symbol _(
| |
[s2l]
[unpack s s]
|
| [symbol .(
| |
[s2l]
[unpack s s]
[f ]
|
[1

sorry, in that example, the last [unpack s s] should probably be [unpack f s]

Thanks Iohannes & Tim,
I would be interested in how to achieve this with [text]?
I've been playing with text for the first time today, I thought that the 'fields' were only whitespace separated.
if I had... [text define longsymbols]
[symbol aaaa_bbbb ( | [text set longsymbols]
...how would I then retrieve the 'aaaa' and 'bbbb' separately?
(Otherwise I will just use l2s/list2symbol)
Thanks! John

Just do it with [list]s objects from vanilla. Certaily can be improved... ++

ah indeed, i knew that one of those objectfamily-objects ([text], [list], [array]) provided the way to split a symbol into characters.
i thought it was [text], but was obviously wrong. [list fromsymbol] it is!
thanks for sharing.

Thanks Jack, [list tosymbol] looks perfect.
There seems to be an error in the release log in the Pd documentation html and elsewhere...
0.46-0 "New [text tosymbol] and [text fromsymbol] to allow string manipulation."
I was wondering why [text tosymbol] wouldn't create.
I presume this is meant to read [list tosymbol] etc. and not [text]?
Thanks all, John.

which is just an alias for [symbol2list]...
something (roughly) like:
[symbol drums_1.wav( | [symbol _( | | [s2l]
or simply specify the separator as an argument: [s2l _]
[unpack s s] | | [symbol .( | | [s2l] [unpack s s] [f ]
this won't work: [f] does NOT magically convert a symbol (as output by [unpack s s] into a float. luckily, [symbol2list] will output the "1" as a number 1 (rather than a symbol), so you can reduce that to: [unpack f s]
